Until now, that is: In the November 2018 issue of Tatler, cover star Johnson finally addresses the "Fix You"–singing elephant in the room. Though she only offers up a dozen words on the matter—half of which firmly close the door on any further discussion of her relationship—they're a telling bunch. "I'm not going to talk about it, but I am very happy," she tells Tatler, according to E! News.

People looking for deeper intel about Johnson and Martin are out of luck: Those close to the couple have been equally tight-lipped about their connection. Back in May, for example, Johnson's mom, Melanie Griffith, was asked about Martin and, like her daughter, offered up a terse endorsement followed immediately by a disclaimer about the pair's dedication to their privacy. "I adore him!" Griffith told People of Martin at the time, then added, "But she is very private about her life and I respect that."

Besides these two bare-bones statements and countless paparazzi shots of Johnson and Martin together, the only other concrete, public-facing proof of their love are the matching tattoos the duo appear to have received some time in the past few weeks. Earlier this month Martin was spotted in Los Angeles sporting a new piece of ink, consisting of an infinity symbol filled with two X's, on his right forearm. The very next day the exact same design was seen on Johnson's left elbow during an appearance in Venice. The truth, it seems, is in the tats.
